I have an erratic problem on random computers where someone will log in and it will say 'no printers installed' in word, excel, notepad etc (anything). I restart the print spooler and the printers appear.

Windows patched, various printer hotfixes applied. Nothing in event log. How can I fix\troubleshoot this please?

(I have tried other methods of printer deployment and failed, this is what I need to fix, I don't want suggestions of a new method please.)

I actually put the script to restart the spooler 10secs after login (event vwr shows the spooler is definitely restarting) but sporadic users are still finding 'no printers installed', if the support call is raised and I remotely restart the spooler the printer appears. obviously many minutes after login.
what to do.....I'm at a loss.
